INSTALL & CONNECT
The
equipment must be correctly grounded
(ground resistance, Rg = 30 Ohm or less). The
environment must be dry and dustless. Do not expose the unit to rain or water splashes, and
do not place liquid containers or incandescent objects like candles on top of the unit.
Do not obstruct the ventilation grilles
with any kind of material. If the device requires any
intervention and/or connection/disconnection, it must be first powered off.
Do not handle the speaker output terminals with your device turned on
, there are high
voltages. The output cabling should be connected by a qualified technician. Otherwise only use
pre-made flexible cables. There are no user serviceable parts inside the amplifier.
Non-compliance with the instructions or neglecting warnings may cause malfunction
or even damage the unit
.
•
Avoid turning on the device without the speakers connected to its outputs
and without
having previously set the volume/gain controls to minimum level.
•
Always use shielded cables
to make connections between devices.
•
In an amplifier, avoid placing the speaker output cables close to other signal cables
(micro, line…). This may cause the system to oscillate, damaging the amplifier and speakers.

Location, Assembly and Ventilation
HADA series devices have a
19" rack format (2RU).
It is very important not to enclose the amplifier or expose it to extreme temperatures as it
generates heat. It is also necessary to encourage the airflow through the ventilation holes of
the chassis.
The ventilation system forces the airflow, front to back, through the unit.
If multiple products are installed in the same rack or in a cabinet with closed doors, it is highly
recommended to install fans in their upper and lower ends for a forced airflow from the bottom
up. This upward air flow will help to dissipate the heat generated inside.
It is advisable not to place power amplifiers under other appliances
, but upon these
ones. Hada amplifiers
can be stacked one on top of the other, leave one rack unit empty every
3 to guarantee an adequate heat sink.
Regular maintenance of dust removal is highly recommended
as dust can impede
airflow and hinder heat dissipation.
